“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
Matthew 19:4-6

Hello my beloved readership,

dazzle all day and shine bright like a diamond in everyday-life with the right accessories that give you a boost. Check out the according nail-art here.

Speaking about myself as mother, I rather see me as mentor and friend for my children to help and serve where they cannot come further on their own, rather than standing in their way to progress or being an unnecessary burden. I mean do not get me wrong I love my children and also I get nostalgic and emotional at times, especially when they are entering new stages of life. I remember how small they have once been and I am surprised how quickly they have grown all of a sudden. It is staring from kindergarten and enrollment at primary school and reaches up to marriage and the birth of possible children they would have in the future. I am a kind of mother who is proud of the achievements my children reach and I do not hesitate to bring them to the next level. Yes, I am careful and preventive but after all teachers are strongly recommending us to trust our children to make the right choice on their own and even if they do not do so they will grow from their mistakes.

The more it shocks me and makes me shake my head with a facepalm about how much (most of the) mothers of the baby-boomer generation (at least those I heard of – and I heard about a lot of them) are clinging to their children not letting them live. They practice pressure, emotional threat and general abusive treatment and harassment on their children while forcing their way of living and thinking on them even long after they have reached adult and independent stages of life. Do not even make me start with the ridiculously huge amount of double-moral their behavior includes… I cannot quite tell where the roots of their psychological disease of depression, constant dissatisfaction and fury are lying but what I can tell for sure is that this kind of traumatizing anormal behavior is real. If you believe so much in ideologies and stick so much to religion and devout living how come this one you forget this easily?

To everyone who needs to read this: dear mothers, do not even dare to destroy your children’s life more than you already have just for your very own selfish satisfaction! Man is supposed and will leave to make a better future. I warn you, you once did the same, so do not play pretend!

Unlike my visit before the big participation in the “Küchenschlacht”, which you could read about here, my stay at Hanny Beautiful Nails was much more relaxed this time. I mean, this time there was also a big and important event ahead, some new chapters beginning but this time I came with new gained knowledge:

• I called to make up a proper date,
• I did not have any plans later on,
• I took a date early in the day in the middle of the month.

This spared me quite some stress. Now one could ask if glittery nails are really appropriate for serious business-occasions but, come on, why not? You may dazzle all day in everyday life with some eye-catching, tiny accessories to boost your look. Shine, glam and boost is, after all, what this spring season is about.

Huge thanks to Hanny Beautiful Nails for this wonderful stay. Check them out in Barmbek-North in Hamburg.

Love, Johanna
